NBA - Oklahoma City Thunder: The Thunder play their home games at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City. It’s been a while (1979) since Lenny Wilkens led OKC to its only NBA Championship, but the Thunder have had a lot of competitive seasons since then. From 2009 to 2020, the Thunder only missed the playoffs once thanks to names like Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, Paul George, and Chris Paul. The Thunder are competing in 2024-2025 with high expectations after finishing the prior regular season 57-25.

NFL - Dallas Cowboys: Only a three hour car ride separates Oklahoma City from Dallas, so it makes sense that there are a lot of blue and silver jerseys in Oklahoma. The Cowboys won three Super Bowls in four seasons during the 1990s with the help of Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith. Since then, Dallas hasn’t made it to a Super Bowl, but they’re always a fun team to bet on with big-time stars like Dak Prescott, Cee Dee Lamb, and Micah Parsons.

NFL - Houston Texans: Since their existence in 2002, the Texans have captured the hearts of some fans living north in Oklahoma. Guys like Arian Foster, Andre Johnson, DeAndre Hopkins, and JJ Watt have kept the franchise competitive on a regular basis. Since 2011, the Texans have made the playoffs seven times, but they’re still searching for their first AFC Championship Game appearance. With CJ Stroud under contract, they might find it sooner rather than later.

NCAA - Oklahoma Sooners: Since 2012, the Oklahoma Sooners men’s basketball program has only had two losing seasons. In 2023-2024, the Sooners finished 20-12 and got as high as seventh in the AP Poll, but fans were disappointed they weren’t invited to the March Madness fun. Oklahoma’s football team won the National Championship in 1985 and 2000. The Sooners have been consistently good recently as they’ve recorded 19 seasons with double-digit wins since 2000. Oklahoma’s baseball program has had 84 players go on to play in MLB.

NCAA - Oklahoma State Cowboys: You have to go all the way back to the 1940s for Oklahoma State’s last men’s basketball championships when the Cowboys won back-to-back National Titles in 1945 and 1946. Oklahoma State hasn’t qualified for a March Madness tournament since 2021 when they lost in the second round as a No. 4 seed. Oklahoma State’s football program has been ranked every season since 2008 under coach Mike Gundy.
